[15:16] <johnny77> Who is in charge of the themes for the wiki that I can change in my preferences?
[15:49] <head_victim> johnny77: depends on what you mean by "change my preferences"
[15:50] <head_victim> Is there a problem with the change my preference window or are you requesting a feature be added to the page or?
[15:52] <johnny77> In user preferences there is a drop down list to change the theme. I was wondering if I could get the files for one of the themes.
[15:53] <head_victim> johnny77: does https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Templates help at all? I t has a section on wiki themes
[15:54] <johnny77> let me look, I didn't know about that. n
[15:54] <head_victim> johnny77: no worries mate :)
[16:03] <johnny77> head_victim: That looks like what I want, but I can't get it to work. I've setup a desktop MoinMoin wiki so that I can edit it then paste it into the Community Wiki to avoid excessive saves.
[16:05] <head_victim> johnny77: ah I just use a text editor for that sorry
[16:05] <head_victim> It's sad but I know most of the syntax off the top of my head so that's not really an issue
[16:06] <johnny77> And just starting, I don't know the syntax or what it will look like.
[16:06] <head_victim> Another option is to copy pages to be subpages of your own personal wiki page and have a little sandbox there (which I have done in the past, I'm not sure if this is best practice though)
[16:07] <head_victim> For example my wiki page is https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JaredNorris and if I'm working on a samba page for example I might copy https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Example/Samba/Page to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/JaredNorris/SambaPageSandbox until I'm happy with it
[16:09] <johnny77> thank you for that idea. I might do it that way.
[16:10] <head_victim> It just means you still have to be connected to the internet, you can't do it "offline" that way but yeah, any combination of the 2 approaches might be useful if you need offline editing
[16:13] <johnny77> head_victim: it's not so much as needing offline editing, but just I'm looking at rewriting a whole page. I just wanted to save on the saves that I sent out.
[16:13] <head_victim> johnny77: fair call, I'd go with the copying one then if that works. I also use the preview button HEAPS
